Hi, @DarkHorse I am glad you got your GPU working removing the Nvidia vBIOS header. Thanks for the beer, I look forward to drinking them making the next video. So if my voice is slurring I will blame you

Hi, Guys. A very short video about how to make one share that can access everything on the array. I find this very useful for being able to move items from one share to another quickly. Or to have one mapped drive that has everything on the array. (Please note having a root share there are dangers, it is easy to delete a whole share off the array. Also should you pc get a ransomware infection it would have read write access. So be careful using it!)

Part 2 now in orginal post.

Hi @scottw I find for me the windows client doent work well. Download the .ovpn file (Yourself (user-locked profile) Then download from here https://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/downloads.html and use that software with the .ovpn file. Works great.

@planetwilson great thats good you got it working. Thanks for reporting back with your findings

I have never used imessage myself, but i looked through that guide quickly. There is nothing there that will break the vm. I would leave the model as imac 14,2 though then just generate serial etc. I will go through and try the tutorial when i have more time if it doesnt work. Please report back

Hi @bjp999 Thanks, glad you like the videos Yes, I think the most common CPU and RAM most users would have would be 4 cores (8threads) and 16gb of ram. When assigning resources to VMs and Docker Containers it is as much as an art as it is a science. It is best to experiment to find what works best for you but following certain principles. After the second part to this video I am realising a video about server, Docker container and vm tuning alot of which based off @dlandon excellent tips and tweaks plugin and post here Plex obviously will use more CPU when transcoding streams and direct play (non-transcoding) wouldn't affect CPU usage very much. By default, each Docker container can access the whole of the server's resources as the host OS seems fit. So this includes all cores of the CPU. This is the case even if you have pinned the vCPUs in the VM. The pinning of the vCPUs in the VM just tells the VM it can only use those cores for its processes. However, it doesn't stop the host OS from being able to use them. So even pinning 3 out of the 4 cores for the VM will not slow down Plex that much unless the VM starts doing some heavy number crunching. It really isn't much different to if you ran a plex server on a bare-metal Windows machine. Plex would work fine, but then if you started rendering some video files in a video editing software it will effect plex as each process will have to "wait its turn" for the use of the CPU. Now you can isolate cores from the host OS by adding isolcpus= and the numbers of the threads. This will stop the host system using these and you can assign them VMs or Docker containers manually. So then yes this would take them 'out of the game' as they would then only be used by whatever is pinned to them The reason it is best, with a VM, not to split hyperthreaded cores is to stop context switching between hyperthreads. This wouldn't be so much of a problem for a vm that you don't game on or watch video on. So anyway if you just wanted a basic Windows 10 VM for non-gaming processes then i would pin just one core to the VM for example core 4 (3,7). That would then just limit the VM to that core. I would then pin plex to the other 3 cores(1-3) using --cpuset-cpus=0,4,1,5,2,6 that would keep the two processes off the same cores.

your welcome @kc8flb glad the guide was useful

Yeah, I consider 70G as quite small. I have known people setting up 500gig Vdisks !! 70G It is more space than I will fill up on the disk. Windows recommends a minimum of 20 gigs of free space. But I think its useful to have 10 - 20 gigs more than that for temporary files and the desktop etc. I often have video /image files of up to 10 gigs. I may work on these on the desktop before putting on the array. Also, the vdisk size will be different to the file size on the disk until the vdisk is filled. Good idea about the script

The best way to install and setup a windows 10 vm as a daily driver or a Gaming VM Hi, Guys. This is the first part of a two-part video about setting up a Windows 10 KVM VM in unRAID. (second part in a day or 2 if work lets me !) The first part deals with setting up the VM correctly to be able to use as a 'daily driver'. Then the second part passing through hardware to turn it into a gaming VM. The first part consists of Download a windows 10 iso. Where to Buy a license for windows 10 pro for $20 How to assign resources and correctly pin you CPUs. How to install the virtio drivers including the qxl graphics driver. How to remove or block the windows 10 data mining - phone home - etc with anti beacon. How to install multiple useful programmes with ninite Using Splashtop desktop for good quality remote viewing How to install a virtual sound card to have sound in Splashtop/RDP etc. Using mapped drives and symlinks to get the most out of the array. Windows tweaks for VM compatibility. general tips Hope you find it useful Below is the T second part of a two-part video about setting up a Windows 10 KVM VM in unRAID. The second part deals with passing through hardware and potential problems and solutions showing you how to turn it into a gaming VM. Hope you find it useful.

@Xxharry I have replied in your other thread

Unfortunately, Rclone has been banned from ACD see https://forum.rclone.org/t/rclone-has-been-banned-from-amazon-drive/2314/24 so we need to use other cloud providers at present. If you have encrypted data there then just download it then you can upload it elsewhere then connect to it using the same password/salt and access the data.

Hi @jrdnlc Yes, its still supported i think we have about 50 plus new VM icons (thanks for help @methanoid ) https://spaceinvader.one/unraidvmicons/ We and a load of new banners ( thanks to Anis El-Mariesh ) https://spaceinvader.one/unraidbanners/ The site was moved to another server this week and directory listing wasn't on for those folders afterwards, so the script couldn't see what was there. It should work now

I would use deluge-VPN and use as Jonathanm says, for VPN provider use PIA (https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/) . This will work fine for what you want to do.

thanks 1812

oopps no my bad. I left out the :1100 in error should be append vfio-pci.ids=1b73:1100 vfio_iommu_type1.allow_unsafe_interrupts=1 iommu=pt pcie_acs_override=downstream initrd=/bzroot

You should be able to navigate to the directory cd /mnt/disks/google Then ls you should see something like this

Hi, Guys. This is a short Video about how to resize a Vdisk in unRAID. I am sure most people know how to expand a Vdisk but this guide will also show you how to shrink a vdisk should you need to. I hope you find it interesting How to Resize Vdisks. Expand or shrink a Vdisk in unRAID

Try this append vfio-pci.ids=1b73 vfio_iommu_type1.allow_unsafe_interrupts=1 iommu=pt pcie_acs_override=downstream initrd=/bzroot

Thanks. Glad it helped

Hi Guys. I have made a video about setting up and configuring Duplicati on unRAID for cloud and network backups.

Thanks for the info Tom. Would be nice to see Gnome tracker in unRAID in the future.
